Daniel Lavoie (born March 17, 1949) is a Canadian singer–songwriter.
Lavoie was born in Dunrea, Manitoba, Canada. His mother was a musician and he learned to play piano at a young age. In 1967, Lavoie won a singer-songwriter competition for the Société Radio-Canada French language television program, Jeunesse oblige which gave him his first major publicity.
The young Franco-Manitoban played and sang in both English and French with two different groups but his singing career began to blossom following a 1970 tour in the province of Quebec. Within a few years he was equally as popular in France as he was in Canada, headlining at Bobino and the Olympia in Paris. His album Nirvana bleu (recorded in 1979) was one of his bestsellers ever. He is also known for his 1990 single "Jours de plaine", which features an animated video produced by the National Film Board.
Daniel Lavoie starred in the highly successful musical play, Notre-Dame de Paris, in which he played the part of Frollo, and recorded the successful song "Belle", with Garou and Patrick Fiori. He has written music for motion pictures including the Ludovic series of animated short films.
His album J'ecoute la radio charted at #100 in Canada in November 2011.[1]

Parti Québécois candidates, 1989 Quebec provincial election
The Parti Québécois fielded a full slate of 125 candidates in the 1989 Quebec general election. Twenty-nine of the party's candidates were elected, which allowed the party to retain its position as the official opposition in the National Assembly of Quebec.
Electoral divisions
Brome—Missisquoi: Daniel Lavoie
Daniel Lavoie received 6,238 votes (25.03%), finishing second against Liberal Party incumbent Pierre Paradis.
Prior to the 1989 election, a newspaper report about factional infighting in the Union Nationale listed Daniel Lavoie as a party member. It is possible that this was the same person.
Jean-Talon: Martine Hébert
Martine Hébert received 12,272 votes (40.39%) for a second-place finish against Liberal Party incumbent Gil Rémillard. A candidate named Martine Hébert ran for Vision Montreal in the 2009 Montreal municipal election; it is not known if this was the same person.
Nicolet-Yamaska: Guy Vachon
Guy Vachon has been a candidate of both the Parti Québécois and the federal Parti nationaliste du Québec. In 1984, he identified as a teaching consultant.
Daniel
Daniel is a masculine given name and a surname of Hebrew origin. It means, "God is my judge", and derives from two early biblical figures, primary among them Daniel from the Book of Daniel. It is a common given name for males, and is also used as a surname. It is also the basis for various derived given names and surnames.
Background
The name evolved into over 100 different spellings in countries around the world. Nicknames (Dan, Danny) are common in both English and Hebrew, although in some instances "Dan" may be a complete given name rather than a nickname. The name "Daniil" (Даниил) is common in Russia. Feminine versions (Danielle, Daniela, Daniella, Dani, Danitza) are prevalent as well. The Dutch names "Daan" and "Daniël" are also variations of Daniel. A related surname developed as a patronymic, Daniels. Other surnames derived from "Daniel" include McDaniel and Danielson.
In the United States, the U.S. Social Security Administration reports that Daniel has peaked as the fifth most popular name for newborns in 1985, 1990, 2007, and 2008. The U.S. Census Bureau reported that in the 2000 census, "Daniels" was the 182nd most common surname in the U.S., while "McDaniel" was ranked at 323, and "Daniel" (without a final "s") was ranked at 380.
Daniel (Bat for Lashes song)
"Daniel" is a song by English recording artist Bat for Lashes, from her second studio album, Two Suns. It is her best selling single to date, selling over 46,000 copies worldwide. The song was announced as the lead single from Two Suns in January 2009, then released as a digital download single on 1 March 2009, and as a 7" vinyl single on 6 April 2009. The track was written by Natasha Khan and produced by David Kosten, as with all tracks on the album. Ira Wolf Tuton from Yeasayer provided the bass lines for the song and Khan did the rest of the instrumentation herself. Khan said in an interview with The Sun newspaper that "Daniel" is based on a fictional character that she fell in love with as a teenager. The single's cover features Khan with an image of the character Daniel LaRusso, from the film The Karate Kid, painted on her back. A character much like LaRusso also features at the end of the music video which goes with the song. The B-side of the 7" is a cover version of a 1980 single by The Cure.
Book of Daniel
The Book of Daniel is a biblical book consisting of an "account of the activities and visions of Daniel, a noble Jew exiled at Babylon." In the Hebrew Bible it is found in the Ketuvim (writings), while in Christian Bibles it is grouped with the Major Prophets.
The book divides into two parts, a set of six court tales in chapters 1–6 followed by four apocalyptic visions in chapters 7–12 – the Apocrypha contains three additional stories, the Song of the Three Holy Children, Susanna, and Bel and the Dragon.
Traditionally ascribed to Daniel himself, modern scholarly consensus considers the book pseudonymous, the stories of the first half legendary in origin, and the visions of the second the product of anonymous authors in the Maccabean period (2nd century BC). Its message is that just as the God of Israel saved Daniel and his friends from their enemies, so he would save all of Israel in their present oppression.
Its influence has resonated through later ages, from the Dead Sea Scrolls community and the authors of the gospels and Revelation, to various movements from the 2nd century to the Protestant Reformation and modern millennialist movements - on whom it continues to have a profound influence.

Je Pensais Pas
by: Daniel LavoieAvant quand je partais je lançais un bye bye
Comme on lance un sac dans une soute à bagages
Un peu de courage et le lendemain matin
J'étais déjà loin
Si loin
Avant je me voyais comme un imperméable
Je les laissais pleurer pour me sentir aimé
Et je reprenais mon sac mon air de gare
Un taxi dans la rue et je ne revenais plus
Je pensais pas qu'un jour
J'aimerais si fort
Que rêver de partir serait
Comme rêver de mourir
Je pensais pas qu'un jour
J'aimerais si fort
Que j'aimerais mieux mourir
Que de partir encore
Je quittais mes amours comme des livres de poche
Qu'on oublie sans regret sur un siège d'autobus
Et sans arrière-pensée je partais au loin
Je me voyais comme un train à vapeur dans la nuit
Mais un jour j'ai pas su ce qui se passait
J'avais envie de partir mais je restais
J'avais beau hanter les halls de terminus
Je n'arrivais plus à prendre l'autobus
